Dataset Overview | National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI)

Thermosalinograph data of the Hawaii Ocean Time-series (HOT) program in the North Pacific 100 miles north of Oahu, Hawaii for cruises HOT155 - 176 during 2004 - 2005 (NCEI Accession 0011142)

The HOT program makes repeated observations of the physics, biology and chemistry at a site approximately 100 km north of Oahu, Hawaii. Two stations are visited about once a month: Kahe Point (Station 1: 21.34N, 158.27W) and Station ALOHA (Station 2: 22.75N, 158W). Various other stations are made intermittently in support of similar research objectives or mooring deployments.

HOT thermosalinograph (TSG) data are recorded every 10 seconds from water collected by a continuous seawater system aboard each vessel from a depth of about 3 meters.

This dataset contains TSG data for HOT cruises 155-176 during 2004 - 2005. Also included is TSG data from the Woods Hole HOT (WHOTS) annual cruise of 2005. CTD and Niskin bottle data from these cruises are available in separate NODC Accessions.
